How do I get around 28 day rule?

There are some programs that are broadcast on more than station on a weekend. Sometimes, because of sports, preemptions, etc., I like to use Season Pass to record two showings "just in case".

However, TIVO seems to automatically exclude a second recording of the same program, even on another station. A look at "view upcoming episodes" shows that some are unchecked even if Season Pass specifies that they be recorded. It can be fixed manually but frequently, checking one unchecks a second.

How do set the machine to record more than one broadcast of the same program. Thank you. Peter
